In yet another stunning display of political theatrics, Democrats on Capitol Hill erupted into chaos during a closed-door briefing with Attorney General Pam Bondi, screaming about the absence of cameras before abruptly storming out in a full-blown meltdown.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer subpoenaed Attorney General Pam Bondi for a deposition on Tuesday, as she faces continued scrutiny over her handling of the Epstein files and potential noncompliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
The deposition is scheduled for April 14, 2026.
Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche are also scheduled to give a private briefing to Oversight Committee members on Wednesday.
In an attached letter to Bondi, Comer expressed concern over noncompliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law by President Trump last November, and “possible mismanagement” of the investigation into Epstein and his associates.
On Wednesday, during a House Oversight Committee briefing on the Justice Department’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, Democrats turned the session into a circus sideshow.
Instead of engaging in serious questioning, Democrats derailed the meeting with complaints that C-SPAN cameras weren’t present to record the briefing.
According to Bondi, one lawmaker “screamed” about the lack of cameras and refused to proceed despite Democrats spending hours publicly claiming they had urgent questions.
Moments later, Democrats walked out entirely.
Reporter:
Democrats on the committee walked out. They called it a, quote, “fake hearing,” and said you were just trying to get around appearing for a deposition. Can you respond to this?Pam Bondi:
We were there to answer questions. It’s the evening. We came at their convenience. We gave them really as much time as they wanted. And one congresswoman screamed that C-SPAN wasn’t in there, so she didn’t want to ask questions yet. All day long, they’ve been on social media saying they had all these questions. We sat there saying, “Anything you want to ask us—ask us anything you want to ask us.” And they screamed C-SPAN wasn’t there—one of them—and then they stormed out of the meeting.
WATCH:
Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon took to X, blasting Democrats on the committee for what she described as childish behavior.
“The Democrats on this committee behaved like petulant children and created drama and stormed out. So much for wanting the truth!” Dhillon wrote.
I was sitting behind @AGPamBondi at this briefing where she answered EVERY question asked by either side. This lady picked up her purse and stalked out without asking a single question. So much for getting answers! https://t.co/FdaFUFtYxv

Committee Chairman James Comer suggested the walkout was pre-planned political theater, accusing Democrats of wasting time and avoiding meaningful discussion.
Comer:
They didn’t ask any questions. The Attorney General is here, but they said they wanted C-SPAN in here—they wanted the cameras. Very, very typical behavior of the Democrats. Very disappointing, because I really felt like there were a lot of Democrat members who cared about getting the truth.But I’ve never seen members storm out of a briefing with the Attorney General, when the entire leadership of the Department of Justice is there to answer questions—and they don’t ask a single question.
So, I think what we heard today helped us. We’ll continue with our investigation and move forward.
